Answer:
The correct answer is - C. retention of their own genome.
Explanation:
The endosymbiotic theory is a theory that suggests that eukaryotic cells are developed from prokaryotic cells. According to this theory, organelles like mitochondria are developed in eukaryotic cells as the result of proteo-bacteria cells engulfing aerobic bacteria.
The evidence of this theory can be seen as the mitochondria has their own genome such as circular DNA and ribosomes as the prokaryotes.
The subscript; the number at the bottom right of the symbol
(Initial individuals + newborn individuals) - dead individuals = total individuals
Growth rate = (total individuals/initial individuals) * 100
Population growth rate = new percentage minus 100%
Calculations
(1000 + 500) - 200 = 1500 - 200 = 1300
Growth rate = (1300/ 1000) * 100
= 1.3 * 100
= 130%
Population growth rate = 130% - 100%
= 30% per year if it is uniform
